cdrom drivers ?
as far as I have known, no drivers are needed in xp,
I think the support for cdrom drives in set up in the bios, but I could be wrong too.
try removeing the ide controlerfrom the device manager that the cd is connected to and reboot the system, it should boot up with it being detected and reinstalled.
also there is the inf files that are installed with a cd that comes with the motherboard, its possible one of them got damages somehow.
